Did you know that 2024 will mark the 25th anniversary of #TheLeagueofGentlemen (1999), the 15th anniversary of #Psychoville (2009) and the 10th anniversary of #InsideNo9 (2014). How do we best celebrate? And is it now time to retire?
TV camera at the fossil grove today. Much excitement! Glasgow City Council has agreed to fund £450,000 worth of repairs to the building to help conserve the fossils for future generations to enjoy.. a big result for geoconservation!
These are not aliens
They are jimbacrinus bostocki crinoid fossils found in Gascoyne Junction, Western Australia from the early Permian (280 million years ago) in the Cundlego Formation

@bbcmerseyside Straight after the report, there was 2 seconds of silence, then you played a song that kept repeating "I miss my baby" "baby, gotta get up"... weird that guys 🤔
@harrietdrage Hi! I am literally in the same position! Studying a fossil forest amongst people extracting DNA from fish and flowers 😂 poster looks good!
Let your imagination run wild @BangorUni Our #PhD students studied such a diverse range of subjects inc. a prehistoric forest in Wrexham, nuclear thermal hydraulics, antimicrobial resistance, micro & macro plastic pollution, sea snails, bumble bees, farming landscapes in Malawi!
As the sun sets after the @ProgPal2023 conference, my mind drifts between the functional morphology of mammalian shoulder blades @OsteoSophia and the use of fossil brain cavities to identify fishes @Jake_Atterby amongst many other cool projects! Int' palaeo brilliant ⚒️🌍
For #FossilFriday, here's "Collins' Monster" - one of many amazing finds made at the #BurgessShale by ROM crews under the leadership of Des Collins. The species was named Collinsovermis monstruosus in his honour in 2020. Artwork by @MesozoicMuse.
